M-1902
Bolo Bayonet
Basic Information

Officially named the M-1900 Bolo
Bayonet, the Krag Bolo Bayonet, is a variant of the M-1892 Bayonet.
It is extremely scare and may attempts have been made to create
fakes of this rare bayonet, especially by welding M-1892 Bayonets
to M-1910 Bolo Knives.

Only 50 of these Bolo Bayonets were produced
at the Springfield Armory in 1902, and 6 in 1903. Designed
and issued for field trials
in the Philippines, no actual indication of their use in such
trials have been found in military documents to date.

Great care should
be taken in acquiring and authenticating this rare bayonet.
